Morning ALWAYZWIN. This is a tricky one. If you plan to play poker seriously, then you need to impose Bankroll Management, definitely. But at Micro-Levels, if you just plan to have a little fun, the rules are different, really. If £10 is all you can afford, or all you wish to risk, that's fine, but Bankroll Management is tough at those Levels, it does not really work, truth to tell. If I were you, I'd relax, & enjoy it. Play some 2p-4p cash, or a small DYM, just dabble around, & see if you enjoy it. Poker is a fun game - until losing money starts to hurt. If you can afford to lose a tenner, enjoy it, it's the price of as few pints, or a night at the cinema. If you can't afford to lose a Tenner, my advice would be don't risk it. A friend of mine derives more enjoyment from poker than anyone I know. She used to Deposit £25 per month, by Standing Order, on the 1st of every month. When it had gone, she stopped playing until the 1st of next month, rinse repeat. She had no illusions of making money, she felt £25 per month was a reasonable price for a fun hobby. I met with her about 2 years ago & pointed out a few leaks in her game, mainly position, & serial-calling, never raising, finding soft spots, that sort of thing. She's never deposited a penny since, & has over £300 in her Account now. Just enjoy the game, & if you have any questions, post them in the Poker clinic, or here. But if losing a tenner is going to hurt, or is more than you can sensibly afford, please don't play poker - you won't enjoy it. Take care now. Posted by Tikay10
Hi Tikay
I too am very new to the game and this forum, however, I wondered if you could please elaborate on the advice you gave your friend as I am having a real problem with consistency - sometimes okay sometimes very very bad and I get demoralised. I do love the game but I have to be careful with my expenditure.
HI TIKAY WAS JUST WONDERING HOW I COULD HAVE MY ROYAL FLUSH SHOWN ... IT WAS ABOUT 5 MINS AGO ON MASTERCASH 4 ... THANKS ...LOL_CHECK Posted by LOL_CHECK
I was about to tell you where to post it but it looks like you found it!
i asked customer services wether I could bet exact amounts on poker by typing in amount/how to do it, and said not possible. But I noticed when railing tonight 'skyroller' event players were putting defined amounts in. So is this poss and how is it done?

When you are sat at a table and the bet buttons come up you will see a white box with the bet amount in. You can click here and overtype the bet amount to any value you like.

I entered two satellite tournaments for the same prize not knowing i would make it through the first time of asking,but i did. Then i almost made it the second time, what I want to know is could I have played twice in the same tournament if I had made it?
